One Thorough Lap Around Beautiful Kenan Stadium

August 18, 2020

WHEN: 08/17/2020
QIC: Boucher
PAX: Arthur, Big Kat, Brotox, Champ, Cosmo, Elwood, Night Shift, Red October, Shooter, Slug, Vandelay, Walnuts

Earlier this summer, YHC took over the reigns from F3 Churham OG/Godfather/Double Respect Shooter.  Hadn’t Q’d in a few weeks and this ended up being Q #2 in 6 days.

Per Shooter’s request (and still feeling sore from the Animal House Co-Q with Moore), there wouldn’t be much running.  YHC knew Shooter was expected to be in attendance so history was a mist – celebrating one of Shooter’s latest books about Kenan!  Buy one today AND support your local bookstore!

YHC, Brotox and Cosmo started with a brisk Ruck…had to double time to get back in time and Night Shift appeared to get a good EC run in.
